AFRICAN DIASPORAL ENTERPRISES


Losses Suffered by the African Diasporal Community


What did African slaves and their descendants actually lose as a result of the slanderous teaching regarding the curse of Ham? Africans and their descendants lost the following:

·                     Family names -- African descendants lost the ability to identify themselves by their ancestral names, as well as the ability to claim a connection to a specific ethnic group (i.e. Yoruba, Ga, Fulani, Ibgo, Edo, Asante). For most Africans in the Diaspora, both they and their progeny bear the name of a past slave master, perhaps in some cases, the slave master that raped their foremothers and brutalized their forefathers.

·                     Ability to keep an accurate history of ancestral paternity -- African descendants lost the ability to identity their forefathers. Africans slaves were oftentimes sold and renamed based on the name of the slave owner. As slaves were considered chattel property, governmental agencies charged with keeping the census or birth and death records did not record their African names. This inability to retain the names of their ancestors prevents their descendants from being regarded as legitimate heirs of land and other property that is customarily passed down from father to son.

·                     Ability to return to the land of the ancestors -- The great majority of Africans in the Diaspora do not have the ability to return to the exact place where their ancestors came from, like for example, the Jews can. Although Africans can return to Africa, virtually none can point out a specific area in Africa with which their ancestors are associated.

·                     Ability to speak ancestral languages/practice ancestral cultures -- The vast majority of Africans in the Diaspora do not have the ability to speak their ancestral languages (or practice the cultures associated with those languages) since they do not know who their ancestors are. This deleteriously affects Africans who have been rendered monolingual as a result of the Jewish-fomented religious myth of the curse of Ham. When foreigners who speak other languages come to they United States to do business, they are able to plan strategies outside of the knowledge of the United States government. As most Africans in the Diaspora speak only the official language of the government in which they live, everything they say can be tracked by the government.

·          Ability to own/control areas that are populated by Africans -- The vast majority of Africans in the Diaspora do not live on land that is wholly owned by them. All over the United States, many white, Jewish, Asian or Middle Eastern neighborhoods do not have Africans living with them and have no African businesses in their neighborhoods. However, in African diasporal neighborhoods, non-Jewish whites, Jews, Asians or Middle Easterners have enterprises from which Africans rent and buy.

·          Ability to maintain an honorable international reputation – Although a few Africans in the Diaspora (like Oprah Winfrey, various hip hop artists, etc.) are respected internationally due, in part, to their great wealth, the vast majority of Africans in the Diaspora are viewed with either very little tolerance or outright disdain. As a result of European Judaic slander, Africans are oftentimes viewed negatively by the international community. Even in the United States, there are still establishments like the Cracker Barrel restaurant that does not serve Africans.

·          Loss of Africans' Presumption of Innocence -- The loss/destruction of Africans' reputation was exacerbated by European Jewish religious dogma that profiled dark-skinned people as wicked.  According to the book Legends of the Jews,Vol. 1, page 169 the author, Louis Ginzberg writes:  "Speak not the truth; hold not yourselves aloof from theft; lead a dissolute life; hate your master with an exceeding great hate."  Based on this slanderous teaching, those "cursed" with red eyes, misshapen lips and twisted curly hair are thieves, immoral, depraved and are haters of authority figures.

The past European Jewish practice of negatively profiling black/dark-skinned people based on their warped rendition of the Torah was a precursor to the  practice of racial profiling by European-controlled law enforcement agencies, and by many non-African individuals.  While other non-white ethnic groups have experienced some form of police brutality, no ethnic group has suffered the myriads of beatings, shootings and deaths caused by the brutality of  white police officers more than Africans.  From Emmitt Till to Eleanor Bumpers to Rodney King to Amadu Diallo to Abner Louima to Mr. Bell, no ethnic group has had their fingers, hands, wallets, keys and open space "mistaken" for a gun more than Africans -- both from the continent and in the Diaspora.  The website http://web.amnesty.org/library/index/engAMR510401998 has a treasure trove of data that shows how Africans make up 42% of all individuals on death row but only 12% of the population.  It also gives examples of unarmed African Americans who were shot by white police officers.

        It is clear that Africans in the Diaspora have lost a great deal as a result of the European Jewish religiously-fomented slander regarding the curse of black skin. This is why it is so important that this centuries-old myth be disclosed to the public -- once and for all.
